Lever Press
Lever Press is a university press, based out of Ann Arbor, MI. Though founded in 2016 with the help of Michigan Publishing, Amherst College Press, and the Oberlin Group, Lever Press is not affiliated with a single university. Instead, it represents a consortium of universities, each of which helps govern and guide the press. All publications issued by the press are released as open access works, with the cost of production being paid for by the participating universities.
